Randy is a male filling the roles of both father and husband. As a father, Randy wants to be there for his children. As he indicated, he does not want to be a weekend father; he wants to be a full time dad. As a husband, Randy wants to provide for his family in the most efficient way possible. To him, wasting money on two residences for their family of four does not make much sense, especially when he wants his family there with him.
I could never imagine not being supportive of him and can never imagine not nurturing his mind. I know all too well the role I play in his development and how he views himself, how eventually the world will view him. I will never hamper his development by letting him feel as if he is not good enough for his own mother's approval because I fear he will seek that before all else. I fear he will be like myself and waste away years trying to be someone he isn't for an approval that does not matter when it isn't given. A childs largest support system stems from their imediate environment and their family.
It is interesting that Olfelia will be able to exist in a world where time does not matter; because this is something the Captain desires so much. He wants his family name to live on forever, and the only way that he could achieve this goal is by fathering a son; to the Captain, his son is the only way he can defy mortality. In fact he does not even question that his wife might be carrying a girl. When Carmen first came to see the Captain, he felt her belly and confidently believed that it would be a boy. It is clear that he does not even care for his wife’s health; she is just a mediator between him and his son, who he could pass on the inheritance and his name to.
Odysseus cared for his crew but realized if he told them the truth, he would never get home. The oracle said if he took one way home he would see his family again. In order to choose this route he had to do several tasks to get home. This choice included that he would be the lone survivor of the journey. If he told his crew, everything that the oracle told him, his crew
The spirit of the marriage left the bedroom and took to living in the parlor. It was there to shake hands whenever company came to visit, but it never went back inside the bedroom again. Reason this quote represents gender? I believe that this quote is stated that a man always wants to be in control even when his wife is intelligent. In the time their eyes were watching god was written most men would not be punished for beating a women unless it involved a black man and a white women.
He has been married eleven years, with a son. He works as a chauffeur for a rich white family. One could consider his ideas and ambitions to be far-fetched, considering the circumstances. His desires could also be considered juvenile. Bible says “…when I became a man, I put away childish things” A young boy could want to be like his father when he grows up, or a girl could long to be like her mother; Walter’s desire is to be like his employer.
I find myself skipping my own needs and the needs of my husband to tend to our children. This has caused damage in my marriage. I need to put aside time each and every night for husband and myself. No matter what, even if it just to sit down and ask my husband about his day, or to rub his feet. I feel this would be a beginning to attending everyone's needs in my house.
The role of family in the epic poem “The Odyssey” is greatly valued. Odysseus’ motive and main goal throughout the poem is to return home to his wife and son. Odysseus is given numerous opportunities to give up his expedition home and travel and stay elsewhere. He has resisted many temptations because he cannot wait to return home to his wife. He had risked a lot through the poem and it was all for his family.
This way my father always sends them clothes and money in order to help support them at such an old age. Like many immigrants my father never forgets what is most precious to him back in his first hometown. My mom’s boyfriend Carlos who is from Honduras is always worrying about his mom’s well being since the day he immigrated to the United States. He sends plenty of money to support his mother and calls every chance he gets to see how she is doing. This demonstrates how many immigrants like Carlos still remember the people who helped bring them where they are
So I can definitely say that in this event, she is not so happy about meeting her dad, in fact, she doesn’t even want him to come in to her life. I thought that she would actually never meet him ever again since they made a promise of each other that they would keep out of each other’s lives. But chapter eight tells me that family is crucial no matter what and they don’t have anyone else to rely on. In real life, also you can’t have anyone better to rely on than your family since your family I funds you when you need money and usually trusts and defends each other. On chapter eight, she hits a girl called Carly because she called Josie a ‘wog’.
